In literature is it true that oranges are a sign of bad luck?

In literature is it true that oranges are sign of bad luck? I heard this through a friend and he used The Godfather as an example and I want to make sure if this is true or not. If yes please post a link where it talks about this.In literature is it true that oranges are a sign of bad luck?
I have never heard that, and I read a lot. But you might consider posting this question in Arts and Humanites under Books and Authors. Someone browsing there might have more information and could point you in the right direction. Best of luck with it.
